Implementation of Value-Based Payment Programs
Module Materials
Value-based payments require primary care practices to rethink how they provide patient care, and this can feel overwhelming.
To address this concern, this module will discuss the key components for implementing value-based payment (VBP) models into your practice. These components include creating a mission and vision statements, addressing practice culture change, effectively utilizing your health information technology (HIT) for VBP, staffing, and payment models. Along the way, we explore examples of novel care delivery models.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this module, the learner will be able to:
- Describe how to set a mission and vision for a practice’s implementation of VBP.
- Describe the culture change considerations and approaches to implement successful VBP programs.
- Name potential methods to effectively utilize HIT for VBP implementation and operations.
- Provide an overview of example staffing models for VBP implementation.
- Outline novel VBP care delivery models to inspire future practice change.
Who should complete this module?
The information in this module is valuable for Regional Accountable Entities (RAE) Facilitators and Practice Facilitators as well as all primary care team members, including clinical (clinicians and staff), operational (front and back office) and administrators (leadership and managers).
